It
takes certain kind of courage to recognize what's right in front of your
face.
Ignoring
it is easy. That's what we condition ourselves to doing. Frankly, I’m way too
good at it. Getting sidetracked. Distracted. Like a squirrel with ADHD.
But.
Facing up to the stone cold truth, even when it's about to collide with the tip
of my nose? Eh, that's not so easy.
Those
blatant, obviousnesses of Life - the ones we take for granted and never
question - those are the truths that everybody faces. But I rarely ever
confront. Be it a health issue, or whatever. Til now.
Maybe
this sounds like the attractive glimmer of a new year’s resolution in the
making. It is for me, but feel free to appropriate it for yourself.
So
here's to hoping – first and foremost – you recognize whatever reality you’ve
been ducking, for what it is.
And
second, that you have the courage to act on it (including a prayer for having
the wisdom to know when _not_ to act on it, if that’s warranted).
Thanks
for reading all the way down here.
